Are you passionate about making a positive impact on the environment while delving into the dynamic world of retail? Look no further! Loopa is seeking dedicated individuals to join our mission-driven startup as freelance research assistants. As part of our team, you'll play a vital role in shaping our product launch by collecting, processing, and analyzing data from various retail brands within the furniture industry.
At Loopa, we're on a mission to revolutionize the furniture retail industry by empowering consumers and businesses to make environmentally conscious choices. Our innovative approach addresses the challenge of measuring and managing Scope 3 emissions associated with furniture consumption. By leveraging public data, we provide dynamic carbon grading for furniture products, enabling businesses to track and manage their carbon footprint effectively. Join us in creating a transparent and personalized shopping experience that reduces waste and minimizes global carbon emissions.
No previous experience in data scraping or the furniture industry? No problem! At Loopa, we believe in providing opportunities for motivated individuals to contribute to our mission, regardless of prior experience. English proficiency is required to perform the tasks, but since our team is bilingual, Spanish speakers are welcome as long as they can search for products, organize data within Excel or Google Sheets, and communicate effectively with the team in either language. Your core responsibilities will include:
Whether you prefer manual or automated data collection processes, we offer flexibility to suit your workflow. Compensation will be provided on a per-product basis, reflecting the value of your contributions to our project.
The public product details you gather, available on the product pages, will be instrumental in calculating the embedded carbon footprint of each item using our specialized calculator. These results will be compared to alternative products within the same category, enriching our database and informing consumer choices on our website.
If you're ready to be part of a dynamic team committed to making a difference in the furniture retail industry, we want to hear from you! This position offers a freelance arrangement, but we also have full-time positions available. Feel free to inquire about other job opportunities at Loopa, including roles for ML& Data engineers, marketing wizards, developers, and design researchers.
